The ASL program is founded on these guiding principles:

In-depth, experience-based management training will give you the tools to drive results.The ASL program links the everyday lessons learned in schools with high-impact management training. ASLs participate in training designed to build execution management skills, organizational communication, and problem-solving skills.
Intensive support and planning time will set your team up for success. ASLs receive intensive support from Regional Schools Officers and consult with Mastery turnaround experts to prepare themselves for permanent placement at an existing or new turnaround school. ASLs charged with opening a new turnaround school spend April through August creating school mission metrics, building instructional and operational teams, deepening relationships with school families and community members and preparing their building facilities for the upcoming year.
